Abstract
A rapidly solidified metallic tape is produced by continuously pouring molten metal into a casting space defined among a pair of cooling members and a pair of keep members each disposed close to side edge faces of the cooling rolls to rapidly solidify it. In this method, a solidification shell of molten metal produced on the keep member is continuously moved in a direction opposite to the pouring direction to eliminate to exterior from the system. In the apparatus for practicing the method, the keep member comprises a fixed side plate, a side roll rotatably arranged along a guide groove formed in the central and lower portion of the side plate, a driving means for the rotation of the side roll in a direction opposite to the pouring direction and a means for removing solidification shell from the surface of the side plate.
